flameboy Posted March 13, 2007 Posted March 13, 2007 and just to show I have a softer side (noticed a few from pretty violent games): and this is genuine! love the art style on this box and the textured looked things have.
The Bard Posted March 13, 2007 Posted March 13, 2007 Man...what do publishers have against cool box art anyway? Out of some great choices, they always tend to pick the worst one, like the Metroid Prime 2 one for example, there were some great examples in the additional galleries, yet they chose the most awful looking of the bunch.
4q2 Posted March 13, 2007 Posted March 13, 2007 Too much history to choose from these days...I hate to think how many album/film/game covers this cranium of mine has stored over the last few decades.
Cube Posted March 13, 2007 Posted March 13, 2007 Can't be bothered finding them: Twilight Princess Kororinpa Banjo Kazooie Metroid Prime 2 Four Swords Adventures Pikmin 2
Zechs Merquise Posted March 14, 2007 Posted March 14, 2007 Battalion Wars, Fire Emblem PoR I love Fire Emblem boxart.
Teppo Holmqvist Posted March 14, 2007 Posted March 14, 2007 All these wondrous games are from Phoenix Games Group, European budget game publisher. http://www.phoenixgamesgroup.com/
Daft Posted March 14, 2007 Posted March 14, 2007 Just awesome! Look at those eyes!! I love this one! I think the Resi 4 box is awesome aswell!
The Bard Posted March 18, 2007 Posted March 18, 2007 Yeah, I agree there actually, Tales of Symphonia had one of the best boxarts of all time.
mcj metroid Posted March 18, 2007 Author Posted March 18, 2007 you kinda have to see this lovely shiny one yourself.
McMad Posted March 18, 2007 Posted March 18, 2007 I think the Final Fantasy series deserve a mention, I love their iconic clean, white covers:
Zell Posted March 18, 2007 Posted March 18, 2007 You forgot the best one. The US boxarts are comparatively shit. Example:
mcj metroid Posted March 19, 2007 Author Posted March 19, 2007 my goodness the sonic 3 box is beautiful. I forget about them much better than the american one
Mr. Bananagrabber Posted March 19, 2007 Posted March 19, 2007 The lack of Ico in this thread made me physically sick all over my walls. I tried to stop, but the spray just continued on and on until I was physically and mentally drained. I collapsed in a thick pool of vomit and lay there until I was found by a family member hours later.
mcj metroid Posted March 20, 2007 Author Posted March 20, 2007 that's the thing though. I don't like either ico boxart. That one is nice but doesn't scream BUY ME!
